  3. Full-time

    FT: Ulster 38-34 Benetton

    It's all over at the Kingspan and it is another win for Richie Murphy's men.

    Ulster go fifth in the URC with five tries.

    Benetton gave their all and show once again they are no longer here just to make up the numbers.

    But it is Ulster who deserved the victory with some clinical plays.

    Try Ulster 38-34 Benetton

    Tomas Albornoz (80 mins)

    Benetton grab a last second try from the fly-half who steps up to convert. Luke Marshall see's yellow for the infringement beforehand with hands in the ruck.

  5. Ulster 38-27 Benetton

    Take a bow Rob Baloucoune!

    Jacob Umaga again steps on the gas down the right flank with a try looking certain.

    However, the Ulster winger had other ideas coming crashing in from the side and the ball goes dead. Excellent D.

    A simple chip through and that must be that for Ulster as they stretch more than a score ahead.

  10. Ulster 35-27 Benetton

    The home side starting to turn the screw now as they win a penalty inside the Benetton 22.

    Try Ulster 33-27 Benetton

    Cormac Izuchukwu (67 mins)

    Another try!

    It's raining them now as Ulster regain a cushion.

    Great response form the men in white.

    Attack hard into the Benetton 22 and after some carries by the forwards close to the line, it is replacement lock Cormac Izuchukwu who pounces over from one metre.

    The referee stuck is head into the melee but eventually saw a grounding.

    John Cooney...you guessed it, adds the extras.

  15. try

    Try Ulster 28-27 Benetton

    Ivan Nemer (63 mins)

    The visitors mean business.

    They kick deep towards the Ulster try-line. Mike Lowry slips as he tries to run out of danger and is caught on his own line. Rather than kick clear Harry Sheridan picks up the ball but is bundled back and the prop replacement Ivan Nemer twists and touches down.

    Tomas Albornoz again with an excellent conversion.

  16. try

    Try Ulster 28-20 Benetton

    Toa Halafihi (57 mins)

    This game still has some fight in it as Benetton bounce back.

    Fantastic feet in the midfield from Tommaso Menoncello before he sends replacement Toa Halafihi away into the right-hand corner.

    Tomas Albornoz takes over kicking duties and nails the conversion from out wide.

  17. Ulster 28-13 Benetton

    Jacob Stockdale has failed his HIA and Ethan McIlroy will remain on the pitch in his place.

  18. Watch: Stockdale goes over for Ulster

    Ulster 28-13 Benetton

    Watch: Jacob Stockdale scores a try for Ulster

  19. try

    Try Ulster 28-13 Benetton

    Will Addison (50 mins)

    Would you believe it. Only three minutes after being at fault for a try at the other end, Will Addison scores at the right end.

    Ulster pressure inside the Italians' 22 sees an overlap emerge on the right and it is left to Mike Lowry with the long pass out to Addison on the touchline and the centre has the gas to get in the corner.

    John Cooney again adds a wonderful two points form the touchline.

  20. try

    Try Ulster 21-13 Benetton

    Jacob Umaga (47 mins)

    Oh dear, look away Will Addison.

    After some impressive footwork outside his own 22, Addison throws a pass out the back for no real reason and Jacob Umaga nips in to pick the ball up and race into the corner to grab his side's second try.

    He cannot nail the conversion however.
